Objective and Description of the Scientific Content 

On the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between Vietnam and France, Vietnam Institute for Advanced Study in Mathematics (VIASM), Hanoi University of Science, Vietnam National University (VNU-HUS), and the French Académie des Sciences (FAS), in collaboration with the CNRS International Research Laboratory France-Vietnam in Mathematics and its Applications (IRL FVMA), the French Embassy and the International Research Network on Mathematical and Computer Modeling of Complex Systems , the National French Institute for Sustainable Development (UMMISCO, IRD), will organize a joint Vietnam-France scientific meeting on the theme of application of mathematics for sustainable development from 21st to 23rd September 2023.
This meeting aims to promote application of mathematics in the development of society, celebrating the International Year of Basic Sciences for Sustainable Development 2022-2023 by UNESCO and the United Nations.
The meeting will be held at two venues: The first day of the meeting will be held at the historic Nguy Nhu Kon Tum Lecture Hall of VNU-HUS, followed by two days of scientific talks at VIASM.
There will be several plenary lectures and invited talks, as well as short communication by early career scientists in three parallel sessions: Control Theory; Mathematics for Sustainable Development, and Data Science & AI.

  • Session on Control theory applied to Societal problems:
  • Session on Mathematics for Sustainable Development: Water Management, Hydrology, and Fishery Management: The session will present recent developments in the field of mathematical modeling of ecological systems with a focus on sustainable development approaches. The session will also address sustainable water resource management and climate change as well as sustainable management of fisheries systems. Beyond the theoretical approaches, particular attention will be paid to presentations comparing mathematical models to real cases, notably Vietnam.
  • Session on AI and Data Science

Language: English
